66 million years in the making.
Introducing Dùn Cana - Sherry Quarter Cask Release, a new single malt Scotch whisky encompassing the prowess of Raasay's mighty volcanic mountain. 66 million years in the making, we're delighted to introduce this new release into our single malt range.
Peated and unpeated spirit matured first in the strong foundations of our American rye casks with a second maturation in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry quarter casks, this whisky exudes peppery spice, dried sultanas and hints of vanilla with a finish of lingering salty chocolate and a light hint of aromatic wood smoke.
An annual release with each edition offering slight points of difference in cask composition or age. Limited in quantity and available globally, with the First Edition only 14,000 bottles worldwide. 52% abv, natural colour and non-chill filtered.
And the name? “Dùn Cana” (Dùn meaning ‘stronghold’ in Gaelic and ‘Cana’ being the legendary Norse prince who held the land in the Viking era) is Raasay’s highest point. Our island is our constant inspiration and feeds the essence of everything we do, so we are honouring our beloved island and its iconic mountain with this brand new single malt release.
